first of all - please quote appropriately - especially if you receive the postings as digest. That prevents the signal-to-noise-ratio dropping to unknown lows...
Your responses will give me the required lifetime for my variables, but not the required access at all levels of code (unless req is a global variable?).
Do you have any other suggestions as to how this might be implemented?
If the code you showed us _is_ what you use - then req seems to be a global
variable. Otherwise it won't work.
Andrew, you are aware, I take it, that the request object is provided as an argument to each handler that's called for a request?
Using any kind of global in mos_python code is dangerous because of the potential for one request's changes to overwrite another's. I've had to deal with similar complications in my own code, but you may want to think about biting the bullet. Globals are almost always a bad idea in multi-user contexts like this.
